It seems for every good move he makes there's always one bad one in the shadows. I just don't think Treliving is a very good hockey guy but he's a great business GM.

Tre has done his job by assembling the best roster he can and managing the cap. It's on the players ultimately to perform to their best potential. Tre has zero control on that. After most signings and trades, the entire hockey community (outside of CP) just praises Tre.
Also, building a team will never be perfect. the fact that our GMs short comings are 4th liners and backup goalies is a damn good thing. I would much rather have those problems rather than the issues up north.
